What era is cranberry glass from?

Cranberry glass is from the Victorian era in England. The dates for the era range from 1837 to 1901. During the period, artisans produced the colored glassware by adding gold chloride to molten glass. Shop a range of cranberry glass on 1stDibs.

How do you identify cranberry glass?

To identify cranberry glass, first examine it under natural light. Most pieces will be a lighter pink color at the top and a darker burgundy hue at the bottom. Next, flip the item over and look for a raised area in the middle. Called a pontil mark, this feature indicates that a piece was mouth-blown, which all cranberry glass was. Hallmarks may also provide clues. Pilgrim was a major manufacturer of cranberry glass and marked some pieces with a capital “P” logo. Another maker, Fenton, used both its name and a script “F” initial as markings. If you're still uncertain whether your piece is cranberry glass, a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer can give you their expert opinion. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of cranberry glass.

What is etched glass?

Etched glass is a type of decorative glass which is the result of small cuts made to the glass. The cuts, which appear white, typically form patterns or images.

Is cranberry glass worth anything?

If you’re trying to determine the value of cranberry glass, experts suggest you work with a certified appraiser. While certain trusted online venues and search engines can be helpful when conducting research on a specific collectible about which you may have questions, the prices or suggested value that you find as a result of conducting independent research may differ considerably from the information that you procure from a qualified professional, such as an antique dealer or an appraiser at an auction house, for example. On 1stDibs, shop a range of cranberry glassware from some of the world's top sellers.

How do I know if cranberry glass is real?

To know if cranberry glass is real, you can largely rely on the color. Authentic cranberry glass usually shows off variations in color with lighter pink near the top of a vase or edge of a bowl and darker burgundy at the bottom or in the middle. Also, turn the piece over and look for the pontil, an indentation formed during the mouth-blowing process. Shop a collection of expertly vetted cranberry glass on 1stDibs.

Is cranberry glass made with gold?

Yes, cranberry glass is made with gold. To produce the glassware, artisans mixed gold salts or colloidal gold with the molten glass. Some pieces also contain trace amounts of tin. On 1stDibs, you can find a range of cranberry glass.
